Hmmm?
Please explain the problem again....
You accepted a mail, but the user does not exist on your system?
So the mail bounces?
But the bounce will never reach the sender, because the sender was
faked? Correct?

And you use a PHP-script to save the mail into a mysql database (btw,
this IS sick).

Ok, as this is exim3, your best bet is to use a verify_only director,
which knows somehow (from a db-dump) which user exists, if the user does
NOT exist, it will fail, the director also needs the no_more setting.
Then enable receiver verification, and hope that this works, but maybe
another (exim3)-guru can give you a better advise. Sorry, but my
knowledge of exim3 is a "bit" rusty.
